Herbs for adrenal fatigue

Any good info out there about herbs for adrenal fatigue? I'm on a combo of licorice and adrenal cortex....was doing ok until yesterday's crisis. Had to wake up earlier then rush injured baby to vet. Baby ok, but needs more frequent bottle feedings. So.....gotta make sure I have the strength to keep feeding her.

I only know about the ones that Girlie listed - but I do have to say I talked my mom into using Ashwaganda because she won't push the doc's to do the right testing, and she's feeling much better!!

This is definitely not an herb either, but we use bioidentical progesterone for adrenal fatigue.

"Estrogen dominance and Adrenal Fatigue are closely related.

One of the hallmarks of Adrenal Fatigue Stage 3B is the presence of Estrogen Dominance. When the adrenals are stressed, their response is to increase cortisol output and this requires more progesterone, a precursor. Cortisol output rises in Stage 1 and Stage 2 of Adrenal Fatigue.

As adrenal weakness advances, cortisol output will begin to decline after peak production cannot be sustained and the adrenal glands become tired. The body’s increased need for cortisol depletes the progesterone levels. As more progesterone (and also pregnenolone) is shunted or sequestered to make cortisol, less is available to balance off the estrogen.

As a result, there is a relative increase in estrogen in the body compared to progesterone during Adrenal Fatigue, further compounding any pre-existing Estrogen Dominance. Most women with Stage 3B Adrenal Fatigue or higher invariably suffer from Estrogen Dominance as a result. Those women who suffer from one condition tend to have the other condition to some degree.

Because the symptoms are similar, Estrogen Dominance, when prominent, can mask the underlying Adrenal Fatigue, which then is overlooked. Clinicians can be misled into believing that the root problem is Estrogen Dominance when in fact it is Adrenal Fatigue in disguise. - See more at: http://www.drlam.com/blog/adrenal-fatigue-and-hormone-therapy-part-2/1652/#sthash.keX3hPcM.dpuf

I can feel the positive effects of salt in five minutes, sea salt is best.

holy basil was good for me too.

Holy basil tea works great for me. When stressed I tend to get hyperthyroid symptoms and I've just realized that ashwaghanda was exacerbating those symptoms. I've just switched to lemon balm and man what a difference! Hot flashes gone.

I've just started taking raw honey at night w/ camomile tea. It helps w/ liver glycogen stores which prevents or limits the early morning release of cortisol and adrenaline.

My functional med doc has also given me dessicated adrenal gland when I am in crisis mode and that's always been a huge help. about to start taking it again.

Yes- I use standard process as well. Great stuff!
